Compromise (Heather Hunter original)

So this is a new original I wrote based off a recent conversation I had. I'm probably the most proud of this song as far as quality and style go so let me know what you think... because I'm interested.

I've been meaning to show you a piano piece for a while... I've been playing a bit for years and I recently moved into a new house that has one so I've been practicing like crazy... waiting for the housemates to be gone so I can sing loudly... you know the deal.

Lyrics!!!

I'm not sorry that this is over
Because this was never real
You chopped me up and took only what you wanted
Now how am I supposed to feel

Don't tell me that you think I'm sweet
God, you're so condescending to me

Because you love me
When I act the way you think I should
And you're so above me
But I am tired of your games
And making this same mistake
'Cause I am not a compromise
For you

There's enough about me I shouldn't have to waste my time
On someone so unsure
If I'm good enough
Or only just good enough

I am not a placeholder
Until you find something good
So stop implying that I'm unworthy
If I don't change like you think I should

Don't tell me that you think I'm nice
Oh you just condescended to me twice

Because you love me
When I act the way you think I should
And you're so above me
But I am tired of your games
And making this same mistake
'Cause I am not a compromise
For you

And I'm talking in circles I know
But I don't care that you mind
You think it's hurtful although
I'm the one doing time

'Cause you only love me
When I act the way you think I should
And you're so above me
But I am tired of your games
And making this same mistake
'Cause I am not a f*cking compromise

I'm not a f*cking compromise

Plain awesome Heather! The piano is great and the lyrics are outta sight! Just the kind of song I was looking for today too! :)

Hi Heather, a really great song that just happens to speak volumes about my last relationship. Have to echo Werwulf: so glad I was lucky enough to stumble across your channel, kep on keeping on.

fabulous...great job !!!

[werwulf222]

Hei hei HEI dear Lady! Comfortably cool, comfortably dark, I think this is your best original yet. I find myself wondering how, out of the thousands of channels available on Youtube, I was lucky enough to find yours; I guess I'm just lucky.

I very much like the ethereal quality of the first minute and the song itself speaks about a human condition that can be prevalent in all our lives.

I hope you keep up the great work!

Wassail.
